| Thanks for sharing ur equipment paul. Was my first try loved it. Now i really want to get a crawler. Meantime rich lets try and expand the course a little wid a lil more challenge. I'm bit on a budget what do u guys suggest i bottled down to two models. Losi Night crawler RTR (Pros: lights, 2.4ghz rc, RTR) Axial ARTR w/ Novak 55t rooster (Pros: orange aluminum bling, quality, and novak offcourse) Advice any Cons from the above models. Also any other suggestions. Wud really like to go for the integy crawler but then again it wud be trampling along the course like a dino.  ITS BIG |

Vin,
The Axial will give you loads options for aftermarket hopups and conversions, but will take more tweaking to getting right out of the box...saying that it is a very popular crawler!
LNC - motor is a bit weak according to Richard, but otherwise is a great crawler, less aftermarket accesories at the moment....
I honestly think both are good and you would be happy with either one! |

| vin, you already have the rx/tx,. . that was my main reason i got the LNC coz i didn't have any yet. but overall for an OTB crawler, the LNC is definitely a bang for the buck. . . just a few tweaks like new tires, and a decent motor, you're good to go. but at the end of the day, you're going to be transforming the LNC to the LCC(the one paul has). . . so might as well get the LCC. . . . and LCC has the advantage of having a DIG. . . . as for axial. . . . as paul said, they have a lot of aftermarket parts available out there. . . but as for performance, i hadn't really had a chance to drive one yet. . . . as far as i heard from all the crawler forums i'm a member, INTEGY crawlers suck. . . . if you're thinking of getting a 1:8 crawler, get a BERG. . . . the only thing that's good about integy is their motors. . . . . .  one more thing to add. . . . IMHO. . . .don't go novak rooster,. . . . you already have the Mamba max. . . use it. . its a really good esc for crawling. . . just pair it with a decent handwound brushed motoe. . . or better yet, go mamba max Pro. . . coz it handles brush.brushless.sensored,sensorless. . . . . you can even have an MMpro and a Novak ballistic 21.5 combo if you want. . . . . . my few fils  |

| Hmm... LCC is very very attractive but when u add items to the cart the total does not look that attractive. I really like the LNC and then in future i wud juz need a motor upgrade since i read on many reviews of this car that its got worm gears for drag braking as well as the ESC assist in drag braking. I like how smooth this moves probably because the ESC and worm ears assist in this sort of movement. Another good choice again is the axial ARTR but then again since no one has it i dun know will this be as smooth as the Losi's |

| Vin,
do yourself a favour and price upgrading a LNC and LCC to the spec you would like in the long run, and see what the difference is, when i did it the LCC worked out less! and then had the benefit of having a dig unit and all the aluminium bits. |
